It's time to leave, no looking back Have I packed everything yet? I grab a photo of my family I'll always keep it close to me Nineteen years in a porcelain castle Time to break off from these shackles I'm a thousand miles from home Searching for a life of my own This beautiful mess of my own creation Awash with colours of fear and excitement I'm an unstrung pearl lost in this world Watching my own life unfold No one I'm trying to impress This is my beautiful mess Walking down these concrete streets And I'm grooving to the busker's beats The cityscape's pretty, the sky's so clear I'm still figuring out my way round here Making lullabies of midnight sirens This recipe from home just doesn't taste right In this sea of people, I'm just another sailing through This beautiful mess of my own creation Awash with colours of fear and excitement I'm an unstrung pearl lost in this world Watching my own life unfold No one I'm trying to impress This is my beautiful mess I'm having the time of my life But I miss you, I miss you The stars in these velvet night skies Are they the same ones you see too? This beautiful mess of my own creation Awash with colours of fear and excitement I'm an unstrung pearl lost in this world Watching my own life unfold No one I'm trying to impress This is my beautiful. This beautiful mess of my own creation Awash with colours of fear and excitement I'm an unstrung pearl lost in this world Watching my own life unfold Searching for my destiny The person whom I'm meant to be No one I'm trying to impress This is my beautiful mess
